Kuo (Eds.), Geomechanics from micro to macro (705-708). https://doi.org/10.1201/b17395-126Tertiary creep is often observed in soft rocks and it represents a problem in a mining environment. Tertiary creep behaviour appears due to progressive micro cracking of the material and would result in a loss of strength and stiffness, which may eve...

Three-dimensional finite element analysis of opening interaction in squeezing ground (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Birchall, T., & Osman, A. (2010). Three-dimensional finite element analysis of opening interaction in squeezing ground.This paper presents a numerical study of the interaction of twin, horizontally aligned openings, deeply embedded in salt rock. Complex three-dimensional (3D) creep analyses were carried out using the Finite Element (FE) method. Findings show that ope...

The Work-Averse Cyber Attacker Model: Theory and Evidence From Two Million Attack SignaturesA common presumption is that the typical cyber attacker is assumed to exploit all possible vulnerabilities with almost equal likelihood. That is, the probability of an attack on a given vulnerability is at maximum entropy, one cannot importance sampl...
